FOREWORD 


ATURE knows all secrets, all trades and all professions. What 

artist would not learn from her that trick of gorgeous coloring 

in fall—what singer does not envy the voice she gave the lark? 
She is a preacher when the leaves begin to fall, and flowers die, teaching 
the impermanence of earthly things. She is the artisan who built the 
everlasting hills and dug the rivers’ channels to the sea; the great 
historian who wrote the story of the world so plainly that wise men, 
looking back, can trace the upward struggle of the race. And it is from 
nature, too, that we learn the value of a shaded light. The glowing 
splendor of the midnight moon, shedding its soft radiance over hill and 
valley —what is it but shaded sunlight, glareless and mellow and pleasing 
to the eye? How does she do it?) Nature knows all secrets, all trades 
and all professions. 


But the lesson learned from nature is not entirely lost. Men are 
also learning to shade the light, employing the most appropriate medium 
—glass. Science and art and business are progressive, from the primitive 
and obvious by slow degrees to perfection and the ideal. In the lighting 
industry, progress has been slow but steady. Crystal glass has been 
discarded for C. R.I., which in turn gave way to the denser opal glasses. 
Crystal and C. R. I. were glaring; opal absorbed too much of the 
beneficial light rays. 


Our own particular contribution is Hyperion Glass. We claim for it 
supremacy in the realm of lighting glassware. It does not merely shade 
the light effectively and completely; it diffuses almost all of the light 
generated by the lamp. Hyperion Glass is not an accident. Its discovery 
and development are the triumphant sequence of experiment and 
research. The substantial additions to our factory, and the new furnaces 
just constructed, are the most impressive tributes to its success that we 
could advance. 


If the cumulative experience of future years enables us, we shall 
make a better glass. In the meanwhile we offer to the trade the finest 
illuminating glassware ever manufactured— Hyperion.

RESIDENTIAL LIGHTING 


S we have said elsewhere, the enclosing unit is accepted as standard for every 
type of building other than residential. But the inherent qualities of this 
type of luminaire, its ability to diffuse asoft and mellow light with complete 

absence of glare, its adaptability to appropriate attractive decoration, have tended 
to popularize it for residential lighting also, and in these pages we illustrate dis- 
tinctive units for every room in the house. Everyone is familiar with the kitchen 
campaigns conducted by power companies throughout the country which have 
resulted in the introduction of an effective unit in hundreds of thousands of 
kitchens. It is safe to assume that no housekeeper with the concrete illustration 
of the effectiveness of the enclosing unit as an illuminant constantly before her 
will hereafter willingly return to the glaring light of an unshaded lamp or one 
insufficiently shaded, and will, in fact, be more prone to utilize the undoubted 
merits and advantages of this unit in every room in the house. In fact, the tide 
is flowing steadily in that direction now. So far as bedrooms are concerned, 
an enclosing unit is the only logical luminaire. Its universal use there is inevitable 
because it floods the room with a pleasing and mellow light from which all injurious 
and glaring rays have been filtered. We are illustrating here attractively decorated 
bedroom units which are being sold in increasing volume by alert and energetic 
jobbers everywhere, and which are particularly typical of modern and up-to-date 
bedroom lighting. 


In the dining room, the requirements of good lighting demand a luminaire 
with decided directional value, capable, in fact, of projecting the maximum illu- 
mination on the dining room table. A unit represents such an illuminating medium, 
and when it is appropriately decorated is incomparably the superior of any other 
system of lighting which could be adopted. 


In most modern living rooms there is no adequate system of lighting. The 
trend has been towards beauty without utility, when it is entirely practicable to 
secure both in combination. Certainly there ought to be an effective lighting 
system in reserve, one which could be utilized for reading and other activities or 
amusements. In this catalog we offer such a unit which is becoming more and 
more popular and which has already been specified for auxiliary living room lighting 
in houses and apartments by hundreds of architects. 


In fact, the enclosing unit is rapidly, by its own intrinsic merits and efficiency, 
becoming standard for every type of building and for most purposes of illumina- 
tion. The alert jobber, dealer and contractor are cognizant of this development 
and are adjusting their business activities to changing conditions. 


Our units, besides being effective in design and attractive in decoration, have 
the overwhelming advantage of being manufactured from Hyperion Glass— the 
most efficient lighting glass ever developed.

HYPERION BATHROOM UNITS 





HIS unit and the electric to match, following the decided trend for an appro- 

priate luminaire for every room in the house, were designed particularly for 
the bathroom. The tile effect is moulded into the glass, and when lighted the unit 
and electric harmonize perfectly with the tiled walls and floors of the modern bath- 
room. They are, obviously, particularly adapted for bathroom lighting campaigns, 
because of their unusual appropriateness and because of their ability to blend with 
the bathroom furnishings. They are made in Hyperion Glass and consequently, in 
addition to their decorative value, are of high efficiency.

GILL SYSTEM OF PACKKING 





NE of the most annoying and irritating features of the manufacture of 

glassware, heretofore, has been the high percentage of breakage which 
attended its shipment. Under the old system of packing in wooden containers, 
this condition, despite every care that might be taken, was irremediable. Fully 
appreciative of this truth, we began experimenting, some years ago, with other 
types of containers and in particular we investigated very thoroughly the practi- 
cability of carton packing. Our investigations proved that the corrugated paper 
carton, as a container of glassware, was not only feasible, but, as we developed it, 
ideal. In consequence, we have practically eliminated breakage and have given to 
the trade a sanitary container free from dirt and one which has removed a most 
fruitful source of irritation, from which sprang most of the misunderstandings 
which formerly existed between customer and manufacturer. 


We were the pioneers also in the elimination of the package charge, notwith- 
standing the fact that we have greatly improved the mode of packing. 


In fine, the interest of our customers is our Own interest, and we wish to 
assure them that we intend to co-operate with them as effectively in the future as 
we have done in the past.
